title: Discovery of polymorphism-dependent emission for crystalline boron-dipyrromethene dye.
abstract: 4-Methoxycarbonylphenyl-substituted BODIPY (boron-dipyrromethene) dye gives, in the solid state, three polymorphs. In spite of the absence of any strong intermolecular interactions in all crystalline forms, the three polymorphs show different photoluminescence properties. This behavior highlights the importance of molecular arrangements of the BODIPY moieties in the crystalline state in perturbing their photophysical properties.
